• the cover letter. "In most cases, I then understood the study’s conclusion and its significance. How come the authors couldn’t put this as well in their paper?"
• Writing a paper can feel more abstract while writing a cover letter you think about the editor.
• You need to put your reader first.

1. Know your target audience
2. Never use synonyms for terminology, even though it might seem dull to repeat yourself a lot,
3. A clear structure. Repeat. Do not assume that something is obvious.
4. Paragraphs shouldn’t be too long. Readers will only read the first (and maybe) last sentence of your paragraph.
5. Stop using words such as “of course” and “obviously”: don't make your reader feel dumb.
6. Abstract includes background, problem, main takeaway, results and implications
